Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Slyd version 1.3.5 as active, updated 14y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.4.
Overview
About this plugin
Slyd is an easy-to-use, highly-customizable slider plugin for WordPress. There are plenty of plugins out there that allow you to easily insert a slider into your WordPress using a shortcode but they require creating a custom slide for every post you write.
With Slyd you can shirk those inconveniences. Slyd automatically pulls in all of your latest posts (or just the ones in a certain category). All Slyd requires is that you upload a Slyd image or a Featured image on your post page.
CSS3/jQuery Animations – Slyd is built to be pretty so naturally it uses CSS3 and jQuery to impress viewers.
Category Selection – Create a new Category or use an existing one to limit the posts that display in the Slydr.
Shortcode – Normal users can insert the [slyd] shortcode to display the Slydr.
PHP Template Tag – For more advanced users, install Slyd into a theme using <?php slyd();?>.
Responsive Design – Slyd is built to scale with it’s container, allowing it to look great whether it’s on a desktop, tablet, or mobile phone.
